The Yuan-ti Pureblood's Magic Resistance racial trait (VGtM, p. 120) provides:
advantage on saving throws against spells and other magical effects
I'm clear on that.
If I'm concentrating on a spell and take damage, I need to do a Constitution saving throw to see if the damage breaks my concentration.
Does the Yuan-ti racial ability allow me to do this saving throw with advantage if the damage was spell/magical?
The Constitution saving throw to maintain concentration is caused by the damage - not the effect that caused the damage.
Similarly, your death saving throws wouldn’t have advantage if the damage that dropped you to 0hp came from one of these sources.
